Can anyone tell me how much this $100 bill is worth? I have never seen a star like this printed on a bill before...   03-12-2009, 06:01 PM   #2 (permalink) Daggarjon Supporter**     Join Date: Sep 2005 Location: Michigan Posts: 8,049 My Mood: i dont se many 100's these days, but it wouldbe my guess that its normal.. is the note also from E district possibly?? __________________ Please visit My coin and currency Website.

It is probably a stamp placed on it by a merchant signifying that it is authentic similar to the "chop marks" found on Trade Dollars. It adds nothing to the value of the note.   03-12-2009, 08:12 PM   #4 (permalink) Daggarjon Supporter**     Join Date: Sep 2005 Location: Michigan Posts: 8,049 My Mood: wouldnt it detract from any percieved value down the road? For the most part, if it is like you say, it would be post mint damage, yes? __________________ Please visit My coin and currency Website.
